General Electric 7012BIMX Timing Relay

The General Electric AGASTAT 7012BIMX Timing Relay is a 7000-series on-delay timing device designed for industrial control applications. It delivers a fixed delay in the 6 to 60 minute range, enabling downstream equipment to energize only after a defined pause, which is critical for sequencing, startup interlocks, or timed safety checks in automated systems. The unit’s coil is rated for 240 VAC at 60 Hz, allowing straightforward integration with standard AC control circuits found in many facilities. As part of GE’s Agastat line, the 7012BIMX inherits the robust electromechanical timing architecture that emphasizes repeatability and reliability in long-running processes. Typical uses include coordinating motor or pump start sequences, feeding downstream relays or valves after a controlled interval, and ensuring orderly delays within process automation or material-handling lines. This model is especially suitable for legacy GE/Agastat installations where a long-duration, single-channel timing function is needed without adding external timers or complex electronics. With its 6–60 minute timing window and 240 VAC, 60 Hz coil compatibility, the 7012BIMX provides a compact, purpose-built timing solution for applications requiring a predictable, monotonic delay in industrial control circuits.
